Resident Evil 3 20th anniversary




Today is the 20th anniversary of the European release of Resident Evil 3!
Resident evil 3 is still my favourite game in the classic franchise, it perfected everything about the gameplay mechanics of the previous two titles. It’s simple story of survival in the zombie infested Racoon city was the perfect backdrop for the ever present and persistent threat of the Nemesis, who made this (in my humble opinion) the most scary and nerve racking game of the Franchise, Jill Valentines desperate cat and mouse chase created a sense of dread that has never really been surpassed in the series.

Having on the whole quite enjoyed Resident Evil 2’s reimagining/remake I’m even more excited to see Jill ’s struggle with the Nemesis recreated in the RE Engine this April.

I’ve been tinkering with this poster on and off for the last 6 months, completely tablet drawn, it’s a new way of working that feels like a bit of a departure from the more loose cartoony way I draw with pen and ink.
